chipesterkhan @chipesterkhan (2925) • Philippines 30 Jul 12

I've tried to search for topics about Virtual Assistants and what they really do. I found out they have a long list of tasks and responsibilities. How does one become a Virtual Assistant? And what are the needed skills to be...

allamgirl My friend works as a Virtual Assistant at oDesk. She says it's pretty much the same as being real assistant. But I think it's project-based or something like that. I tried it but getting jobs are pretty difficult, you also have to apply for it. And some...

lingaypaculdar @lingaypaculdar (337) • Philippines 13 Jun 12

I am not fond of gadgets. An old cp is just fine for me as long as I can sent and recieve text. But this week, our cellphone issue in our office is about to arrive. I thought I'd never get excited. But I can't help myself but...

allamgirl Good for you. I'm not really a techie person but I do get excited over buying new gadgets. I usually just pick whatever I like based on looks and budget though. It's nice that your company is giving you a phone and I'm sure your daughter would be delighted...

allamgirl I agree with you. Here in my country, even babies have facebook pages. It's stupid, really as a baby can't even read and would have no reason to have a facebook account. What's even stupider is that some people even create facebook profiles for their pets. I'm...

allamgirl Sometimes I feel that way too. I get jealous of other people's achievements, and would sometimes feel like a loser. But don't feel so bad about it, you can't have done that badly in your life. And think about it this way, if they can do it, then why can't you?...

rebel_woman06 @SIMPLYD (90708) • Philippines 11 Jun 12

By giving my secret Facebook account to my former classmate in high school and giving her the permission to post it at our official batch FB page, the effect was like dominoes falling . In a matter of 10 minutes,...

allamgirl The same thing happened with my mom. For the first few days, she felt sad that she's got no facebook friends but once she found some of her high school friends, it seemed like she's become the belle of the facebook ball. It brought on dozens of reunions and...

allamgirl Yes, it's one of the wonders of facebook. My friend who went to Canada right after graduation just came back after 9 years. It was easier to look for everyone to invite them for a get together for him. So yes, facebook does have its perks.

allamgirl I enjoy casual dates, just eating out or staying at home, eating a home-cooked meal or takeout while watching TV. I also like the occasional out of towns and special dinners though. But what I enjoy the most is when you can talk to your partner and enjoy it...

allamgirl If I were you, I'd stop thinking so much about getting a letter because it would just drive me crazy. Try to enjoy yourself or do other things to keep you mind off the letters. So that when it comes, you'll be surprised and be even happier.

allamgirl I can totally relate to you. Relationships would be simple if people if people would keep it simple. If you're really into the other person then just stop playing games and everything would be easy to read.

allamgirl Well, it depends on what you really want to do. I feel that way sometimes, I want to buy a new phone even if I'm still satisfied with my phone. I just want a new one just to have a new one. This is why sometimes I hate looking at new phone advertisements or...

allamgirl I like buying fridge magnets too. They're cheap and you can show them off, unlike the shirts. So that's what I usually buy when I travel. For family and friends, it's either fridge magnets or key chains. Most souvenirs are expensive, so those are the only ones...

allamgirl It's a dilemma, really. You don't have the money right now to travel so you gotta work but once you work, you might have the money but you won't have the time to do all the traveling that you want.

allamgirl I'm guessing that "he" is the guy your friend likes or loves? It's kind of confusing, sorry. If this is your friend's boyfriend then he's a jerk, I would have used a stronger word, but that's not allowed but you get the idea. A boyfriend should remember his...

allamgirl Yeah, it does take the excitement out. I guess we have the same sentiment about it. It's just that when you do get married, it would seem like, nothing really changed since you guys are already living together.

allamgirl For me, if one can prevent having a baby before marriage, then definitely do it. But I don't want to procrastinate and say that it's bad. For some people, having a baby forces them to grow up and become better persons. If the baby's already there, then you...
